Yesterday I made a post about NFTs and how I am attempting to sell off my collection and cut my losses. I spoke at length about sticking with the things that work for me, and the thing that works is writing. So here I am again writing a post about something that only a few will read, but nonetheless is relevant, at least to me.
Sick of the grind...
The gist of my post yesterday was how I really want to get out of the city and off the grid. I am forty eight years old now, and more and more, I am just tired of the race. Little things, like getting a haircut, remind me that I only do them because I am still in the society that says I have to. Did I really want to spend twenty plus dollars on a haircut today? No. I would be just as happy shaving my head and being done with it. Clean, and cheap, but not appropriate for the business environment that I find myself in daily...
The funny thing is...
About eight years ago, I went back to school and got my bachelors degree. The job I have now is, or was, my dream job for many years. I sit in an office, and deal with technology. I have the opportunity to be creative and also be involved in show business. Sounds like a dream, right? At one time in my life, yes, but now, I just want to live on my own land and have a small farm. Be self sufficient, and be left alone. Something tells me I am not alone in thinking this way, especially in the world today.
So now what?
I truly believe that the world is made up of two types of people at this time. I think there are people with hope for the future, those that see things like the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, electric vehicles, and crypto as good things. These people likely look up to people like Elon Musk, thinking that we are going to Mars, and everything will be fine. Then there are the other people...
Uncomfortable discussion...
What do the other people have in common? Well, to be frank with you, it is a real spirituality. You see, the other group of people look at things the way they are, and realize that something is very, very wrong. They understand that something has changed in our world, but maybe they do not really understand why they feel that way. The truth is, and a lot of people absolutely hate hearing this, but the truth is God is telling you something.
But what does that mean???
Ok so here is the deal, and this is no secret, but maybe someone reading this doesn't know that I am an unabashed Christian. I was not raised in the Church, but God knew me from before I was born. The truth is, He knows a lot of us, all of us, even if we do not know Him yet. Another truth, and this is not something I am making up here, but another truth is, "He created even the wicked for the day of destruction." Now, you might not think you are wicked, I mean, you don't kill puppies, right? But according to the Bible, if you do not trust in Jesus, then you are working for the devil, and that is what is meant by "wicked."
So where do you stand?
If you have been waking up to the fact that something is wrong in the world, but maybe you have not really wanted to believe in all that "religion" stuff, let me ask you, do you think maybe it might be time to reconsider that thinking? I am not talking about going to church, I am talking about praying and asking God to show you what He has planned for you and your life. Believe me, He will answer you in some way, but be ready, you can find yourself somewhere you never expected to be! No matter where you find yourself just know, that once you believe in Jesus, He will never leave you nor forsake you!
End of days...
You might not be an "eschatologist" or someone who studies end of days prophecy, and you might not know the Bible, but believe me when I tell you, there is a lot going on that was foretold thousands of years ago, and not only Christianity, but Islam and Judaism as well have similar teaching about these days. In none of them do they end in a fun way. So I ask you again...
